TRIBUTE TO MARIA CALLAS

On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of her death, I made a slideshow with some of her most beautiful photos accompanied by her haunting interpretation of Amina's Mad Scene:

"Ah non credea mirarti... Ah non giunge"

1957

  • Actually, hat record probably went to Caballé, who was much more famous for that. Of course, the media talked much more about Callas' cancellations, but media coverage isn't factual truth. I can't see why you say she had a popera singer's dynamic range, since she was reknown for the opposite even among detractors. And being fat isn't anyone's inherent quality (she became very thin still young) - and definitely not a flaw. Perhaps your Neanderthal senses can't notice what Homo sapiens can. :-)

  • I wouldn't call it her death...I'd say her APOTHEOSIS. True divas...are immortal.

  • @Homoclassicus You could have called him 'inquisitive' and I bet he would not have minded.

  • @Homoclassicus

    it's ironic you say that, as several scientists speculate that neanderthals actually communicated via singing because they lacked the power the enunciate consonants well.

    PS: lol anyway, Callas is fabulous as always. I can't help but think she sounds more "natural" than usual here. most of her other lighter repertoire sounds a little constrained

  • sono un fan di Montsy ma mi inchino davanti alla perfezione!
